Dumbo does look incredibly boring. But then, I was never a huge fan of the animated Dumbo growing up.

I really loved the design and look of dumbo, but I have 0 interest in the human characters... I mean I guess I’ll watch it just for dumbo?

Same! That's the only live action Disney I'm excited for, mainly because I love underwater hair movements lmao. I was like obsessed with the way Ariel's hair moved in the cartoon and I would try to recreate it with Barbies in the tub hahahaha.

I saw Alita: Battle Angel last night (on its last day in theaters by me), because I promised my baby sister I would see Dumbo with her. I was so mad that the theater wasn’t completely empty because why else see a movie six weeks into its run???

Anyway, it was meh. Though also the most I have liked Christoph Waltz in like a billion years. It’s nice not to see him overdoing it as a villain.
